The Kensington Hilltop School PTA and Dads’ Club will host the school’s 59th Annual Spring Carnival on Saturday, May 13th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. We are very excited about our first Carnival at the newly renovated school grounds, and the new school will provide a great backdrop to this tremendous fund-raising event to support educational programs at Hilltop.
The first Hilltop Spring Carnival was held in May of 1947, and raised $969.05 to fund Dads’ Club and PTA activities. This included $38.40 from the Rat Race, $3.00 from Character Analysis and $62.25 from Needlework. It’s still a great event for the community, and one that helps our parent organizations support the school."
As in recent years, the 2006 Carnival will include a wide range of games for kids of all ages, a great selection of prizes, superb lunch offerings from the Dads’ Club grill, tempting treats from the bake sale and a visit from the Kensington Police and Fire Departments. Prizes and food have been underwritten by Ruth Frassetto and The Grubb Company. As has been the case for the previous 22 years, a beautiful quilt designed and crafted by Kensington parents will be raffled off that afternoon. Prudential Realtors of El Cerrito donated the raffle tickets, which are available from Hilltop students. Prizes will be given to the students who sell the most. Tickets are $1 each or $10 for a book of 12. For questions about the quilt or to purchase tickets, contact Amy Kurzer-Ogul at 524-6314.
Each classroom will be asked to staff a game, ticket or food booth during the Carnival, so parents should mark their calendars and contact their classroom’s Room Parent to signup. For Carnival details, please contact Alison Roberts (PTA) alisonroberts@ aol.com or Walt Gill (Dads’ Club) wwgill335@ comcast.net.
